Independent Journalism in Dallas Needs You
We need to raise $12,500 by August 9 to support the reporting our community depends on. Reader support keeps us independent and is playing a larger role in funding local journalism and shaping what comes next. If you believe independent local journalism matters, make a contribution today.
Congressman Steve Stockman was up late last night, wading through the flood of media accounts wondering why the media isn’t paying attention to the case of alleged late-term abortionist Dr. Kermit Gosnell and putting the finishing touches on his campaign bumper sticker. He tweeted a picture at 1:44 a.m.
If this is, as it appears, simply a masterful attempt to troll liberals, we doff our hat to the Congressman. It’s impressive how he was able to roll extremist arguments on guns and abortion into a inflammatory yet elegantly simple sentence. He could have worked gay marriage in somehow, but it stands pretty well on its own.
If, on the other hand, he’s seriously proposing arming infants (which, given Stockman’s track record, is entirely possible), we ask him to reconsider. Babies have incredibly poor motor skills. No telling where they’d be aiming when their pudgy little fingers found the trigger.
